The War Within 11.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

[huth]

You can press a button and 11.0 becomes a revamp but Elune moonbeams one of the following three regions of the world into a astral-scorched hellscape (like the Maw but with a lunar color palette). The ash and dust also turns that entire half of the chosen continent to permanent night.

The location is randomly chosen. Would you press the button?

*pushes button 3 times*

You can keep the revamp, though, i don't care about that.

I thought of that as well based on the Blizzcon decor. Like the whole idea that Avaloren or Khaz Algar just doesn't exist anymore in the present unless we went back in time...

We already messed with the timeline thanks to Chromie changing the timeline.

Man, I can't believe Worldshaper really was right the whole time. The corridor of time takes us into the past, and we build Khaz Algar. Also we turn out to be the "mysterious guardians" who "showed up" to protect the roots of Elune'ahir, and the expansion ends with us raising massive permanent storms to protect Avaloren from the keepers and threats because what was really on the other side of the planet was us the whole time.

Nope I have not! Can you link them?

Absolutely too soon. But there are other things that may happen now. They could announce that they are picking up WC3: Reforge and will deliver on the initial promise (and might even be close to a new launch, that one is a win they have to go for imo since it is the biggest breach of trust with their playerbase other than the scandals imo). They could announce a SC mobile game and just throw a tiny teaser for a new SC game saying it is nowhere near launch like Bethesda did with ES6

Whatever they announce, this Blizzcon feels really important. More so than any other before. Theres alot of expectations in the community, both classic & retail. So many want something great and its going to require alot from Blizzard to deliver.

That said - most of this hopium comes from the community itself. Especially the classic community. It feels like they are setting themself up for dissapointment. Personally I have set my expectations low, but one can dream atleast..

Spoiler: 

There's also some other stuff, but they're already debunked/likely fake.

There is no way they announce dwarf druids without showing them changing into an animal form

he was going to go get the next bit of trailer text about player housing and the dance studio and slipped quick help

"Due to Budgeting dwarf druids only change their Beards when transforming."

Druids are getting a ton of customization options in 10.2 so really there isn't much point of the dwarves or any other race that becomes a druid since they'll probably get... non-unique druid forms.

How would people feel if both the binary and the screenshot leaks were real?

The 4 screenshots? I think those two are mutually exclusive. The binary doesn't mention Avaloren.

We have two big crowds in both Retail and Classic wanting somewhat unlikely things:

Retail: World Revamp
Classic Era: Classic+

But the signs are not good, we're probably getting Cataclysm Classic and Avaloren instead. LMAO!

Transforming would be much mire easier to Show the class than an obscure tierset that can't build hype because people haven't even seen it ingame yet.

"Path of the Elements" is such a huge red flag for me. I imagine nobody at Blizzard actually cares about that old dropped feature remotely as much as some players are obsessed with it. Even if they were to do a similar kind of customization, I don't expect them to name it Path of the Anything.

Dwarves afflicted by the worgen curse.

Gotta break a few eggs to make an omelette! Puts dippy bird on button

The binary one is more like Khaz Algar + Revamp... though that's asking a lot and will repeat the same mistakes as Cata did... which even if Blizz wanted a revamp, they'd want to avoid repeating Cata's mistakes.

I'm 100% sure it's going to be a new take on Borrowed Power systems.

Some content creators and world-first players think that borrowed power systems can bring everyone back and will manage to get them attached to the game.

Its funny how Path of Elements screenshot dropped day after binary guy 'leaked' Path of Titans thing
as if someone looked at it and thought 'Well i need to slighly change the idea for my 'leak'. lIll call it path of Elements'.

[Kiria]

The 3rd pic is definitely a fake, you can see the background going through his waist, I'm usually quite gullible with leaks but you can see this as clear as day.
